"Everyone but myself was working in TVPaint, but I’m still most comfortable with working on paper so I stuck to it. [animator] Kevin Eskew had made a really nice pencil tool that they were all using and gave us a beautiful line. Kyle Brooks who colored the whole thing for us was also doing so in TVPaint."
